Vining Gallery is a fine art gallery that sits just outside of downtown Indianapolis and is owned by professional artist Justin Vining. Over the years, Justin has been fortunate enough to work with some of the best artists in our country along with some of the most interesting people in our city. Often in the gallery, Justin finds himself having the most thought provoking and unexpected conversations. From race car drivers to business owners, these conversations are not just about art, they are about our city, parenting, selling, crypto, nfts, the metaverse, and so much more. This podcast is an extension of these moments.
Today I am not in the gallery, but kind of am.. Recently, one of my best friends in the world, MJ Coyle, moved his design and art studio into our building on East 10th Street in Indianapolis. Even though we both own & operate two different businesses, MJ and I have worked together almost daily for years now. MJ is best known for all of his interior design work on HGTV’s Good Bones, but fun fact, a lot of the artwork featured on the show for years, was created by him. MJ has been super busy the last few months, not only filming, but preparing his largest collection of artwork he’s ever created for an upcoming solo exhibit in my gallery that is opening on November 3rd. Today, I’m in MJ’s studio to talk about his upcoming show. MJ, its great to be in your space.
